Today's date

Dear Dr. (or Professor) their last name:

I am applying for (Whatever-graduate school/a job/a loan, an apartment whatever). I know that you are very busy but I would appreciate you taking a few minutes to write me a letter of recommendation using the University/College/Department's letterhead. I am attaching a copy of my application for your review. Your recommendation would be very helpful to me. If you have any questions, please call me at (your number) or email me at (your email).

Once again, thank you for your help in this matter.

Sincerely,

Your name

PS - Make sure that you write this out using correct English, punctuation, and spelling. I work at a school and nothing irritates me more than when I receive requests like this and they have poor English or spelling.

PSS - Good luck!
